Past appeals

As well as our latest appeal, you can still give to some of our past appeals.

If you would like to make a donation to any of these appeals, please just let us know which, when you are asked as part of the payment process.

Urgent appeal for epilepsy research

Over a quarter of a million of the adults and children in the UK with epilepsy live a life disturbed by regular epileptic seizures.

With your help today, there is an answer that can change this for so many people.

A fighting chance for children’ 

Our survey this spring showed some young people growing up with epilepsy are not achieving their full potential. We need your help to give the support that’s needed to schools, parents and teachers.

Supporting people with epilepsy in 2012

Our helpline received nearly 15,000 calls, emails and letters last year. Watch our video to hear how we will be needed by even more people with epilepsy in 2012, or make a donation to help us be there.

Reduce the risk of SUDEP

SUDEP tragically causes around 500 deaths each year in the UK. Read Merryn’s story and make a gift to help raise awareness of SUDEP, so people with epilepsy can make informed choices which reduce their risk.

First aid for seizures

There are around 40 different types of seizure and they don’t all look the same. Would you recognise if someone was having a seizure? Would you know what to do? Make a gift to raise awareness of different seizures and appropriate first aid.

NHS cuts – who will protect your Sapphire?

Support the on-going Save our Sapphires campaign. As the NHS changes continue, there will soon be epilepsy specialist nurses only if GPs ‘commission’ them. With your donation we can help make sure that is exactly what GPs do.
